Come join us in Circle where together we will create Sacred Space and celebrate the turning of the Wheel of the Year to the season of Beltane in the Northern Hemisphere. Also known as May Day, it is the time between the Spring Equinox and the Summer Solstice. Beltane celebrates Nature in all Her noisy, frenetic, amorous energy. Warmth and sunlight are plentiful now, and Nature is busy expressing Herself in glorious fashion. It is a time of warm winds, fresh air, and the fragrances of blossoms and green growing beings all around us.

In our Sacred Space we will celebrate this season with ritual, music, drumming, food,
drink and “family friendly” revelry, as we celebrate Nature as the Maiden who is
young, playful and endlessly creative. Weather permitting, we will be outdoors
with a fire, so bring your chairs and drums. You are invited to wear your “fairy
finery” (think Medieval/Renaissance Faire~ optional).
Please bring a simple snack to share (optional).
